Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty

In the ninth year of Zhenguan, in the Daji Hall of Taiji Palace, in the pavilion, a child of six or seven years old was lying on a long stone bench. I closed my eyes and rested my mind, not knowing what I was thinking. There were two people, one old and one young, standing next to them. The eldest female officer was dressed in about 20 years old and had pretty features. The younger one is a little eunuch. He is about ten years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, which is very pleasing to the eye.

The female officer raised her head to look at the sky, stepped forward and called softly: "Your Highness, King Shen, it's time for dinner."

The child lying on the long stone bench is Shen Wang Li Shen, the tenth son of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty. Later King Ji. He is 7 years old this year. Her mother is Concubine Wei, the first of the four concubines in the inner palace, and the legitimate daughter of Jingzhao Wei family.

"Oh" After a long while, Li Shen uttered one word. He stood up slowly, his whole body exuding a lazy aura.

The Li Shen of today is no longer the Li Shen of history. Beneath his appearance is a soul from more than 1400 years in the future. A year ago, he was a middle-aged uncle born in the 80s. In his thirties, he was ordinary and opened a small shop. If you wake up early and work late every day, you still won't be able to get rich. Stay in the store ten hours a day. Watch videos and read novels all day long. He has the identity of a little boss more than an otaku.

I thought I would just spend this life doing nothing. I didn't even think about changing the water in the fish tank, but I died because of a leaky wire. What was even more unexpected was that after waking up, he traveled to the Tang Dynasty and became Li Shen. But what made him depressed was that Li Shen was only six years old at the time. It is such an embarrassing and sad thing for a 30-year-old soul to travel into the body of a six-year-old child.

Fortunately, he has adapted to his identity in the past year, and he vaguely remembers that in history, Li Shen had to leave a fiefdom when he was eight years old. It is precisely because of this that he did not die as early as his brothers. Li Shen was also one of the few who survived to One of the princes during the Wu Dynasty. Although he was later exiled and died. But he also lived for more than 60 years.

Li Shen stood up and slowly walked out of the pavilion and headed to the side hall. There is still one year to go before the feudal clan is established, and it is he who has the final say when it comes to the fiefdom. The tiring life in his previous life was still fresh in his memory. In this life, he wanted to be a leisurely prince and enjoy the glory. He could not live up to his status as the third generation emperor. Time travel and try to become an emperor? Bullshit! Wasn't the past life tiring enough? Isn’t it nice for him to enjoy life with this status?

This is Daji Hall, where his mother Wei Guifei lives. As the head of the Four Madams, Daji Hall is second only to Queen Changsun’s Lizheng Hall. In the early Tang Dynasty, underage princes and daughters lived with their mothers. Except for those whose mothers died and were raised by the eldest grandson, the rest would not move out of the harem until they reached adulthood, and some left the vassal to fiefdom. Some stayed in Chang'an.

"I've seen the mother concubine." As soon as Li Shen entered, he saw a beautiful woman in palace attire, kneeling on the cave with beautiful appearance and elegant manners. The beautiful woman was Concubine Wei. Although he is 37 years old, he is still graceful and graceful. No wonder Li Shimin was willing to marry Concubine Wei, who was two years older than him and was also a widow. Pooh! Pooh! Pooh! She is her mother now. How could you think so.

"Well, Shen'er, come and have a meal," Concubine Wei replied softly.

"Yes, concubine," Li Shen answered respectfully after finishing his random thoughts, and quickly walked over and knelt down on the couch to start eating.

What Li Shen disliked the most was that there were no tables and chairs in the Tang Dynasty, only tatami mats. When eating, they sit on their knees and have a small table in front of each person. It feels like a small table in a kindergarten.

And it’s very uncomfortable to sit on your knees for a long time. Over time, my legs become numb and painful. Moreover, the Imperial College also said that there are four types of kneeling, namely, sitting in the posture of sitting in a posture, sitting in a squat position, sitting in a squat position, and sitting in a posture with a belt. What perverted remarks are also related to etiquette and cultivation.

According to Li Shen's own understanding, the four types are actually kneeling, sitting, cross-legged, and squatting. But he had no choice. It was better to follow the locals than to be reprimanded.

"Shen'er, did you study seriously in the Imperial College today?" Concubine Wei asked when she saw Li Shen sitting down. This was a daily question. Concubine Wei was very concerned about Li Shen's studies.

"Back to my concubine, I'm very serious," Li Shen replied seriously.

"Shen'er, you have to study hard, and you will be able to do something in the fiefdom in the future. You are already seven years old to help the court. You will be out of the fiefdom in a few years, so you should learn more in the palace in the past few years. How to manage the fiefdom. Don't cause trouble." Concubine Wei continued.

"Yes, mother and concubine, please bear this in mind." Li Shen also said respectfully.

But he was thinking in his heart that his mother didn't know that he would go to the fiefdom in another year. Thinking of this, Li Shen was slightly reluctant to give up. After all, Concubine Wei was his biological mother and she had really doted on Li Shen over the past year. The vassal king went to his fiefdom and was not allowed to return to the capital without an edict. It’s not necessarily when we can see each other again. The inner courtyard of the deep palace is like a big cage. There is only one man serving inside, the emperor. How many women entered it. The emperor could not be seen for several years. Some even died without being favored.

Concubine Wei gave birth to a son for the royal family. It is to continue the bloodline of the royal family. A mother is more valuable than her son, but Li Shimin may not be able to come once a month. Li Shimin's favorite was Empress Changsun, and most of the time he spent the night at Empress Changsun's place. There is not enough time left for so many women.

So Li Shen knew that after he left, Concubine Wei rarely spoke. But once he entered the palace gate, which was as deep as the sea, Li Shen had no choice. Unless Li Shimin is dead. Only then did Concubine Wei have the opportunity to return to her fiefdom with Li Shen to retire. But Li Shimin could live for more than ten years.

"Shen'er, we won't have a bath tomorrow. His Majesty just sent someone here to tell us that tomorrow we will go boating in Nanhai Lake. We will have lunch at Wangyunting Pavilion at noon," Concubine Wei suddenly said.

"Mother and concubine, I don't know who else is going." Li Shen knew that it couldn't be just his mother and daughter. Li Shimin is not so good. Li Shimin was a wise king who wanted to eliminate the negative influence of Xuanwu Sect. She has been working hard since taking the throne, so how can she be in the mood to accompany her and her mother on a lake trip? Besides, his mother is not so favored.

"I asked the eunuch who sent the message. All the talented people and above are going, as well as the princes and princesses. I heard that it was arranged by the Queen. Because His Majesty has been working too hard recently, the Queen wants His Majesty to take a rest and relax. You will be here tomorrow. Come with me, or go and play first?" said Concubine Wei.

"So that's it. Then I will go with my mother and concubine tomorrow. The children have finished eating and will go back to their residence first. Mother and concubine, please use it slowly." Li Shen put down his chopsticks and stood up to salute.

"Yes. Go ahead." Concubine Wei helplessly watched her son leave. He didn't understand why he had nothing to say to his son. To Concubine Wei, Li Shen didn't feel like a child. Not as lively as he should be at his age.

The other princes were lively and active when they were young, and even if they looked calm, you could tell that they were just pretending. Concubine Wei sometimes wondered if Li Shen was born with some flaw. Unlike with her daughter Li Mengjiang. Mother and daughter talk every day. Li Mengjiang would also tell some interesting stories to relieve Concubine Wei's boredom.

Li Mengjiang was the 12th daughter of Li Shimin. According to historical records, Li Mengjiang was intelligent since she was a child, good at calligraphy, specializing in seal script and official script, and had outstanding literary talent. Received special training from Li Shimin. But for some unknown reason, Li Mengjiang was canonized as Princess Linchuan by Li Shimin in the 15th year of Zhenguan.

It is now the ninth year of Zhenguan, and there are still six years to go. So Li Mengjiang is not banned now. Because Li Shimin sent officials who were good at calligraphy to teach him, he also sent a female teacher to attend him. So I don’t live with Concubine Wei. But after studying every day, she would come to say hello to Concubine Wei. Let’s have a chat. He also often checks Li Shen's homework. I have the best relationship with Li Shen. After all, they are siblings.
